    Default coming together

    The Title speaks for a couple different things.
    the fact that this new project is finally up and running (not completed yet)
    and also, the beginnings of putting the Asian and german groups together in one tank.

    Yes they are, I was first going to use K1 but after talking with swiss tropical I decided to go with the poret cubes instead.
